NM ImageNM Image The ProblemThe Problem

DICOM NM objects are different and support in products is inconsistent

NM cardiac display needs are different and support in products is inconsistent

Clinical Analysis Programs are used extensively (particularly for Cardiology), but no support for distribution and display of those Result Screens

NM Users are not adept at getting these requirements accurately included in RFPs

Vendors (especially of general purpose systems) are not adept at accurately representing their support for such features

Scale “intelligently” to avoid presenting postage-stamp size NM images

Allow user to select different vectors/framesets of complex multi-frame images

Allow user to separately adjust intensity for different framesets (eg, phases) in the same “image”

Result Screen Export Option:Result Screen Export Option:Evidence CreatorsEvidence Creators

Render Dynamic Result Screens Based on the following DICOM Objects:

• Multi-Frame Grayscale Byte Secondary Capture• Multi-Frame True Color Secondary Capture

Creating multiple single frame objects is NOT sufficient.Render Static Result Screens Using single frame DICOM Secondary Captures is sufficient Using Multi-frame to render single or several related static result

screens is recommended• provides better image comment/label attributes• provides implicit display order• displayed by stepping, not cine

Must generate appropriate Secondary Capture objects from any Result Screens created.
